The Aventon Current out for its first test ride. Its certainly quick. Gets you to the trails rapidly at 45km/h.
Took Jacks track and firball climb to the trig. Koata Marama, back up to Turners. TMTYL to the top. Then Dexters favourite track. TOP DOG. Then over to Hotbox where we saw NMTBC'S club manager Mel Barker out ripping some turns.
The Current certainly behaved nicely. Felt quite nippy round the corners. Might have been the smaller frame than what I'm used to. Well spec Rockshox suspension and Sram drive train. Plenty of power with Aventons Ultro X motor 140/150 mm suspension. Nice features like touch screen and wireless control pad.
